George Lewis Blackledge III is charged with possession of a firearm by an unlawful user of controlled substances.

A complaint in U.S. District Court in Gulfport says police found illegal drugs and 17 guns at Blackledge's home in Biloxi on Jan. 23.

Blackledge's lawyer says in court records that he's waiting for the government to turn over evidence and needs time to review it. The trail is set for April 1.

The complaint also says authorities found a note in which Blackledge says he was wrongly accused of inappropriate conduct with a girl. The complaint says the note discussed killing police officers if they tried to arrest him.
